Compared to Google Assistant and Alexa, Apple still has a lot of ground to make up in the smart assistant and smart home arenas. If sound quality is an issue, a pair of Sonos One's are the same price and, to these aging baby boomer ears, provide a wider, better balanced, finely tuned, more satisfying sound. I'm admittedly an Apple fanboy, but I am hard-pressed to make a case for anyone buying a HomePod except those willing to bet that Apple will make up ground in these areas and surpass its smart assistant competitors at some future point.
Installation
(5)
Features
(5)
As a smart home platform, HomeKit offers far fewer compatible smart home products than Alexa or Google Assistant. On the plus side, you need only scan a product's barcode to add a smart home product to HomeKit, rather than having to enter the product name and/or search through a list to add a device to Alexa or Google.
Usability
(2)
When compared to Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, Siri is pretty stupid, and HomePod makes Siri even stupider.

You can reach Nest through Google phone and online support.
Value
(8)
For those, however, who want an indoor security camera — watching the house, the kids, a dog perhaps — and a smart display that makes calls, recognizes its owner and connects to their Google accounts, the Nest Hub Max is one easily worth considering.
Warranty
(7)
Standard one year warranty.
